Just about to HTH...

What will be the maximum number of lines that ADDRESS will span?
I only need the maximum at this point...

Will continue tomorrow.

HTH.

---------- Post updated at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous update was at 10:38 PM ----------

Decided to stay up and quickly do a test piece...

This should take into account multiple newlines in the ADDRESS section:-
Code:
#/bin/bash
# multi_vars.sh
ifs_str="$IFS"
IFS="
"
echo 'NAME=SAM
DOB=01/01/1980
ADDRESS=
7658 James Street
NewYork
0000' > /tmp/multi_vars.txt
read -d '' -r text < /tmp/multi_vars.txt
echo ""
echo "$text"
echo ""
echo "Start of placing substrings into variables..."
echo ""
var_array=($text)
n=0
while true
do
	if [ $n -ge ${#var_array[@]} ]
	then
		break
	fi
	subtext="${var_array[$n]}"
	if [ "${subtext:0:4}" == "NAME" ]
	then
		name=${var_array[0]}
	fi
	if [ "${subtext:0:3}" == "DOB" ]
	then
		dob=${var_array[1]}
	fi
	if [ "${subtext:0:7}" == "ADDRESS" ]
	then
		address=$address${var_array[2]}
		for m in $( seq 3 1 $[ ( ${#var_array[@]} - 2 ) ] )
		do
			address=$address"${var_array[$m]}. "
		done
	fi
	number=${var_array[$n]}
	n=$[ ( $n + 1 ) ]
done
echo "$name"
echo "$dob"
echo "$address"
echo "$number"
echo ""
echo "DONE!"
echo ""
IFS="$ifs_str"
exit 0

Results:-
Code:

Start of placing substrings into variables...

NAME=SAM
DOB=01/01/1980
ADDRESS=7658 James Street. NewYork. 
0000

DONE!

bgpd

BGPD(8) 							   Version 0.88 							   BGPD(8)

NAME

       bgpd - a BGPv4, BGPv4+, BGPv4- routing engine for use with Zebra

SYNOPSIS

       bgpd [ -dhpPv ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -p bgp-port-number ] [ --bgp_port=port-number ] [ -P vty-port-number ]

DESCRIPTION

       bgpd is a routing component that works with the zebra routing engine.

OPTIONS

       -d, --daemon
	      Runs in daemon mode, forking and exiting from tty.

       -f, --config-file config-file
	      Specifies the config file to use for startup. If not specified this option will likely default to /usr/local/etc/bgpd.conf.

       -h, --help
	      A brief message.

       -i, --pid_file pid-file
	      When  bgpd starts its process idenifier is written to pid-file.  The init system uses the recorded PID to stop or restart bgpd.  The
	      likely default is /var/run/bgpd.pid.

       -p, --bgp_port=port
	      Set the port that bgpd will listen to for bgp data.

       -P, --vty_port port-number
	      Specify the port that the bgpd VTY will listen on. This defaults to 2605, as specified in /etc/services.

       -r, --retain
	      When the program terminates, retain routes added by bgpd.

       -v, --version
	      Print the version and exit.

       This man page is intended as a quick reference for command line options, and for config file commands. The definitive document is the  Info
       file zebra.

DIAGNOSTICS

       options, see the Info file, or the source for details.
